Popular assumptions contend that ethnic minorities

n exact ab initio theory of quantum transport using TDDFT and nonequilibrium Green’s functions

We present an exact ab initio theory for describing the motion of interacting electrons through nanoscopic constrictions. Our theory is based on time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) and nonequilibrium Green functions. We consider the system electrode-device-electrode initially contacted and in equilibrium, therefore the scheme is thermodynamically consistent. Besides the steady-state r

Religiös ickerealism och referens till Gud
